SLAM's Jamie Palmer offered a scouting report on Upshaw from the Real Deal in the Rock event last weekend.

In his match up against CBC (Andre Drummond), he showed tremendous ability to use all of his length to block shots and rebound where he recorded 11 blocks and 12 rebounds on my count. He is a back to the basket big who has great feel and finishes with authority around the basket where he is at best.

Check out a couple highlights of Upshaw starting at 1:28 in the video below.
